Troubleshooting
There is noise or
interference dur-
ing a telephone
conversation.
My calls fade out
or cut in and out
when I am using
t h e c o rd l e s s
handset.
• Other electronic products can cause interference with your
cordless telephone. Try installing your telephone as far away
from these types of electronic devices as possible. These
devices include: routers, radios, radio towers, pager towers,
cell phones, intercoms, room monitors, televisions, personal
computers, kitchen appliances and cordless telephones.
• The handset may be out of range. Move it closer to the
telephone base.
• Appliances or other cordless telephones plugged into the
same circuit as the telephone base can cause interference.
Try moving the appliance or telephone base to another outlet.
• Other electronic products can cause interference to your
cordless telephone. Try installing your telephone as far
away as possible from the following electronic devices:
wireless routers, radios, radio towers, pager towers, cellular
telephones, digital telephones, intercoms, room monitors,
televisions, VCRs, personal computers, kitchen appliances,
and other cordless telephones.
• If you have a headset plugged into the handset, try unplug-
ging it and firmly plugging it in again.
• Microwave ovens operate on the same frequency as your
telephone. It is normal to experience static on your tele-
phone while the microwave oven is operating. Do not install
this telephone in the same outlet or near a microwave
oven.
• If your telephone is plugged in with a modem or a surge
protector, plug the telephone (or modem/surge protector)
into a different location. If this solves the problem, re-locate
your telephone or modem farther apart from each other, or
use a different surge protector.
• The layout of your home or office might be limiting the
operating range. Try moving the base to another location,
preferably a higher location for better reception.
